Taberna Fm Tc LÉXICO ESTRATIGRÁFICO DE MÉXICO Taberna, formación…………………..………..Jurásico Medio (Bajociano temprano-tardío) Referencia(s): Erben, H.K., 1956a, El Jurásico Medio y el Caloviano de México, en XX Congreso Geológico Internacional, México, D.F., Monografía, 140 p. Historia nomenclatural de la unidad: Erben (1956a) propone de manera informal esta unidad y la incluye dentro del grupo Tecocoyunca (que contiene además a las unidades, Zorrillo, Simón, Otatera y Yucuñuti). Localidad tipo: Se ubica en la falda de la Loma de la Tierra Amarilla, en el lado sur del Arroyo de la Taberna al noreste de San Juan Diquiyú en la región de Tezoatlán, Oaxaca (Erben, 1956a), la sección tipo de acuerdo con Sandoval y Westermann (1986) se ubica en este sitio y mide 94 m. Descripción litológica: Erben (1956a, 1956b) describe esta unidad como lutita oscura con concreciones esferoidales de 1.5-5 cm de diámetro, lutita calcárea oscura con abundantes concreciones calcáreas esféricas de 5-25 cm de diámetro, bancos de caliza aislados con trigonias, intercalados con caliza oscura, depósitos margosos, limolita oscura con galerías de gusanos cuyo diámetro es menor a 1 mm y arenisca de grano fino con estratificación muy delgada. Lázaro-Larrabe y Cárdenas (1982) y Cárdenas- López (1983) señalan la presencia de mantos de carbón en la parte superior de esta unidad. Sandoval y Westermann (1986) mencionan que esta unidad en el centro oeste de Oaxaca está formada por lutita con intercalaciones de limolita y frecuentes concreciones ferruginosas con amonites. Espesores: Erben (1956a, 1956b) registra un espesor que varía entre 50-60 m, mientras que Sandoval y Westermann (1986) reportan que esta unidad varía de 50-100 m de espesor. Leyva-Rodríguez (1992) registra un espesor que varía de 30-50 m en las cercanías de San Juan Diquiyú. Distribución: Esta unidad aflora al noreste de Guerrero en la región de Cualac-Tecocoyunca donde es pobre en contenido fósil (Erben, 1956a; Westermann, 1981); localmente depósitos pertenecientes a esta unidad se encuentran en la barranca del arroyo Tecocoyunca en la falda occidental del cerro de Huamuxtitlán, en el valle del río Tlapaneco y sobre el río Tecoloyan en las cercanías de Totolapa (Lázaro-Larrabe y Cárdenas, 1982). Esta formación también se presenta al noroeste de Oaxaca en las regiones de Mixtepec, Tezoatlán-Diquiyú y de Diquiyú-Yutatio (Erben, 1956a; Ochoterena, 1963; Sandoval y Westermann, 1986). Relaciones estratigráficas: La formación Taberna sobreyace concordantemente a la formación Zorrillo y subyace de manera transicional y concordante a la formación Simón (Erben, 1956a; Carrasco-Ramírez, 1981; Westermann, 1981; Lázaro-Larrabe y Cárdenas, 1982; Cárdenas-López, 1983; Sandoval y Westermann, 1986; Leyva-Rodríguez, 1992). Erben (1956a) menciona que el contacto superior con la formación Simón, se encuentra caracterizado por la primera presencia de arenisca de grano grueso. Sandoval y Westermann (1986) mencionan que la formación Taberna gradúa a depósitos continentales o “semicontinentales” de las formaciones Simón y Otatera, mismas que de acuerdo con estos autores, con frecuencia no pueden ser diferenciadas (ver formaciones Simón y Otatera). Contenido paleontológico: Burckhardt (1927) estudió buena parte del material fósil (amonites) colectado en la región de Tezoatlán Oaxaca, aunque carece de información estratigráfica. (Erben, 1956a,b) menciona 1 LÉXICO ESTRATIGRÁFICO DE MÉXICO Se ha reportado para esta unidad la presencia de amonites pertenecientes a los géneros Stephanoceras, Oppelia (Erben, 1956a,b) y Dactylioceras (Erben, 1956b); así como, pelecípodos del género Trigonia (Erben, 1956a,b). Ochoterena (1963) propone al género Parastrenoceras en el cual incluye tres especies y dos subespecies (P. mixteca, P. mixteca mixteca, P. mixteca zapoteca, P. oaxacanum y P. tlaxiacense). Westermann (1981) reconoce la presencia de amonites pertenecientes a los géneros Leptosphinctes, Parastrenoceras y Oppelia. Lázaro-Larrabe y Cárdenas (1982) mencionan la abundancia de pelecípodos y fragmentos vegetales fósiles. Posteriormente, Sandoval y Westermann (1986) identifican además la presencia de los géneros Duashnoceras, Strigoceras, Stephanoceras, Phaulostephanus, Subcollina, Stephanosphinctes, así como las especies Subcollina lucretia, Stephanosphinctes buitroni y Phaulostephanus burckhardti de las cuales, estas dos últimas corresponden a nuevos taxa. Ambiente de depósito: Erben (1956a) infiere condiciones marinas durante el depósito de esta unidad. Carrasco-Ramírez (1981) interpreta que las condiciones de depósito que dieron origen a las formaciones Zorrillo y Taberna fueron de tipo costero y fluvial, los cuales pudieron formar parte de un complejo deltáico. Lázaro-Larrabe y Cárdenas (1982), Cárdenas-López (1983) propone que esta formación se depositó en una cuenca con circulación restringida, somera y condiciones reductoras variables mismas que pueden inferirse a partir de la presencia de pelitas rojizas y amarillentas; este autor añade que la cuenca se colmataba en ocasiones y ocurría la acumulación de depósitos continentales. Edad: Erben (1956a,b) con base en fauna de amonites, asignó a esta unidad una edad de Bajociano medio- tardío y Bajociano medio-Batoniano temprano respectivamente; sin embargo, el mismo autor reconoce controversias en la determinación taxonómica de los fósiles. Sandoval y Westermann (1986) reconocen la presencia de la Zona Duashnoceras floresi y de la Zona Parastrenoceras zapotecum, las cuales permiten a estos autores ubicar a esta unidad en un lapso que abarca de la parte alta del Bajociano temprano a la parte baja del Bajociano tardío. Dicha edad también es asignada por Jiménez-Rentería y Rueda-Gaxiola (2002) con base en su contenido fósil. Correlación: Carrasco-Ramírez (1981) infiere que esta unidad puede correlacionarse con las formaciones Etlaltongo y Yogaza de Oaxaca y con la formación Tecomazuchil de Puebla. Westermann (1981) propone la afinidad del conjunto de amonites identificado con la fauna del Tethys Occidental. Más adelante, Sandoval y Westermann (1986) basados en el conjunto de amonites estudiado, reconocen la afinidad biogeográfica con la provincia Mediterránea, así como con las provincias Andina y Cordillera del Norte, identificadas en el este del Pacífico; asimismo, reconocen dos biozonas para la parte centro oeste de Oaxaca y proponen su correlación con el esquema zonal europeo, así como con las biozonas reconocidas en Norte y Sudamérica. Importancia económica: Erben (1956a) reporta la presencia de un solo manto de carbón cerca de la mina Fundición del Sol de Mayo, en la región de Tlaxiaco, Oaxaca. Estudios posteriores enfocados a la identificación de yacimientos de carbón en la región comprendida entre el noreste de Guerrero y 2 LÉXICO ESTRATIGRÁFICO DE MÉXICO noroeste de Oaxaca fueron realizados por Díaz-Tapia et al. (1980), Díaz-Tapia y Hernández (1981), Lázaro-Larrabe y Cárdenas (1982) y Corona-Esquivel (1978). Estado nomenclatural: Esta unidad no cumple satisfactoriamente con todos los artículos para el establecimiento de unidades geológicas formales y publicaciones científicas adecuadas para tales fines (Artículos 3 y 4ab), por lo que constituye una unidad informal. Por tanto, se considera conveniente cumplir con los Procedimientos Generales para la Definición de Unidades Formales establecidos en el Código de Nomenclatura Estratigráfica (NASC, 2005; Artículos 3 a 16).

The Humphriesioolith Member at the base and the overlying Blagdenischichten Member are combined in the herein newly introduced Gosheim Formation. Biostratigraphically, the section studied ranges from the Romani up to the Blagdeni subzones of the Humphriesianum Zone. Within this section we analyzed the ammonite faunas and recognized one ammonite fau- nal horizon of the Romani Subzone (romani horizon), three faunal horizons of the Humphriesianum Subzone (ger- villii/cycloides, mutabile, and umbilicum horizons) and a further, still unnamed horizon at the base of the Blagdeni Subzone.

  • The Marine Jurassic of Argentina: a Biostratigraphic Framework
    326 by Alberto C. Riccardi The marine Jurassic of Argentina: a biostratigraphic framework Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Museo, Universidad Nacional de La Plata, Paseo del Bosque s/n, 1900 La Plata, Argentina. Email: [email protected] In Argentina the best and most complete marine Juras- sic succession is exposed between 32° and 39° S, along a N-S belt roughly coincident with the border with Chile. Here all stages, except the Kimmeridgian, are represented by marine facies. Ammonites have provided a biostratigraphic framework to date and correlate lithostratigraphic units and sequences, to reconstruct the history of the marine fill, and allow the development of other palaeontological and geological studies. Recent studies on the systematics and/or biostratigra- phy of Andean ammonites have provided the basis for the presentation of a summary of the 45 ammonite zones of the Jurassic of west-central Argentina and to stress its significance in reconstructing the palaeogeographic evolution of that region. Introduction Jurassic rocks in Argentina are present over extensive areas (see Fig- ure 1) and include a large variety of marine and continental facies (see Riccardi et al., 1992). South of 39°S marine Jurassic consists of Pliensbachian-Lower Toarcian and uppermost Jurassic strata, repre- sented respectively in central and southern Patagonia. North of 39°S marine Jurassic is exposed along a N-S belt roughly coincident with the boundary between Argentina and Chile, up to 31°S where it becomes restricted to Chile. The marine Jurassic generally rests unconformably on Upper Triassic (west-central Argentina) and Upper Jurassic vulcanites (southern Patagonia) or on Upper Paleozoic (west-central Patago- nia).

SOLE # * Riddlesdown High School, Purley, Surrey, CR81EX. # Home Farm, Lyme Road, Axminster, Devon, EX13 5SU. ABSTRACT The rocks of East Hill Quarry, Bradford Abbas are described in terms of beds and the faunas they contain. Comparison is made with S.S. Buckman's section, and for the first time in a century the Bradford Abbas Fossil Bed is described at this locality. The position of many important ammonites is given and their role in biostratigraphy highlighted. 1. Introduction: James Buckman (1814 - 1884) was first to arrive, after Bradford Abbas (ST 588145), on the Dorset/Somerset border resigning from a position as Professor of Botany and Geology east of Yeovil, lies on the outcrop of some of the most richly at the Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester. He moved to fossiliferous rocks in the world. It is a classic region for rocks Bradford Abbas in 1863 and was quick to acquaint himself of the Middle Jurassic which were exposed in the past in with the local geology and archaeology, in particular by numerous quarries and provided stone for building and making collections of ammonites. He was one of the founders road-making. The principal formation is the resistant of the Dorset NFC. He died in 1884 and was buried in the limestone of the Inferior Oolite Formation which rests on churchyard of the parish church in the village. Plate 1 shows a softer recessive sands of the Upper Lias. The limestones are recent photograph of his grave.

Abstract Ammonite faunas are described from the submicrostoma (Submicrostoma Subzone) and giebeli horizons (Multiformis Subzone) of the Giebeli Zone (Lower Bajocian, Middle Jurassic) of the Manflas area (Chile, Copiapó Province). The faunas are correlated with those from the Giebeli Zone of the Paso del Espinacito section and the Neuquén Basin in Argentina. There is evidence for one additional, still un- described faunal horizon in the top of the Multiformis Subzone with an “unusual sonniniid assemblage”. One new species, Latiwitchellia atacamensis n. sp., is erected. Key words: Ammonites, Chile, Lower Bajocian biozonation, eastern Pacific 1.

    STRATIGRAPHY MIDDLE JURASSIC PROFILES IN THE VICINITY OF GYENESPUSZTA To explore the Middle Jurassic sediments available (Text-fig. 2), the staff of the Hungarian Geological Institute carried out diggings on six sites in the vicinity of Gyenespuszta farmstead, northern Bakony Mountains, Hungary (Text-fig. 1). Each profile thus exposed comprises a different rock sequence of different facies and with a different fauna. (For the faunal lists and the profiles, see the Hungarian text.) Profile I The Dachstein Limestone is overlain with a hiatus spanning the entire Middle and Upper Liassic and the Lower Dogger, by red nodular limestone beds (Text-fig. 3), with a fauna characteristic of the Upper Bajocian Parkinsonia parkinsoni Zone. Profile II At the base of the profile (Text-fig. 4) the footwall is represented by lowermost Liassic limestones of Dachstein type that are followed by a thin manganiferous layer with ammonites characteristic of the Toarcian Hildaites serpentinum Zone. This is overlain by the Middle Jurassic ammonitico rosso limestone in which the Middle Bathonian Tulites subcontractus Zone and the Upper Bathonian Prohecticoceras retrocostatus Zone could be identified. The hanging-wall is represented by radio- larites. Profiles III and IV The two profiles have exposed a Middle Jurassic rock suit of similar litho- and biofacies, differing from the other Gyenespuszta profiles. The abundance of Bositra is conspicuous. Both lithology and fauna suggest the presence in Profile III of sediments deposited in a submarine fissure (Q fissure, see W e n d t 1971). Both profiles contain a fauna belonging to the Parkinsoni Zone. Profile V The rock types in this profile (Text-fig.

The Upper Bajocian and Bathonian in the Cordillera de Domeyko, North-Chilean Precordillera : sedimentological and biostratigraphical results. [Le Ba­ jocien superieur et le Bathonien de la CordiIIere de Domeyko, PrecordilIere Nord-Chilienne : resultats sedimento­ logiques et biostratigraphiquesl. ABSTRACT The Jurassic ammonites of the CordiIIera de Domeyko have been studied in several monographies. The classic memoirs of Steinmann (1881), Tornquist (1898), Burckhardt (1903) and Stehn (1923) are particularly relevant. However, the biostratigraphic problems concerning stage boundaries arisen only in recent dates. New sedimentolo­ gical and biostratigraphical data have been obtained in relation to the BajocianlBathonian of this region. Several sections have been studied in two separate areas : Caracoles and Sierra de Varas. More than one thousand ammonites were collected in situ from these localities. Facies analysis shows that sedimentation during Late Bajocian and Bathonian occurs in a marine environment on a carbonate platform with abundant siliciclastic supply. Facies distribution was controlled by structural segmentation of the platform and processes of differential subsidence. The stratigraphical-sedimentological results together with taphonomical-palaeoecological observations are a diagnostic tool for sequence analysis. The successive ammonite assemblages which were found have allowed the establishment of four biostratigraphic units, spanning the interval from Upper Bajocian to Upper Bathonian. The sedimentological and biostratigraphical results indicate the existence of a regional discontinuity at the base of the Bathonian. KEY-WORDS: MIDDLE JURASSIC, BAJOCIAN, BATHONIAN, AMMONITINA, BIOSTRATIGRAPHY, BIOCHRONOLOGY, ANDES, SOUTH-AMERICA, CHILE.

Mexico as the Western Margin of Pangea Based on Biogeographic Evidence from the Permian to the Lower Jurassic Abelardo Cantú-Chapa Instituto Politécnico Nacional, Mexico City, Mexico ABSTRACT n this paper, ammonite biostratigraphy and biogeography are used as the basis for an investigation of the origin of the Gulf of Mexico. Three key observations indicate a IPacific rather than an Atlantic origin for the Gulf of Mexico: 1) The Bajocian ammonite Stephanoceras, which occurs throughout the western Ameri- can margin (Alaska, Canada, United States, Venezuela, Peru, Argentina, and Chile), has also been recorded in the base of the Tecocoyunca Series in Oaxaca (southern Mexico). 2) The Bathonian and Callovian transgressive cycles, which have been recorded in east- ern and southeastern Mexico, have been dated on the basis of the ammonites Wagnericeras and Reineckeia, which are of East Pacific affinity and have been recorded in the subsurface of the Gulf of Mexico coastal plain. The transgressions started in Oaxaca and ended with the Gulf of Mexico opening around the Tampico and Campeche areas, as well as in locations around the margins of the Gulf (e.g., southeastern United States and Cuba) during the early Oxfordian, justifying this age for the origin of this paleogeographic province. 3) In Mexico, several groups of known cephalopods, from the Permian to the Jurassic, are related only to fauna in the Pacific province.
